Coping With Meningitis

i was 3 months old when i was diagnosed with meningitis. My mom told me some of the details that hapened when i was in the hospital. She siad that i was put into an incubator for 2 months or so. And at one point i died or in other words my heart stopped, In my moms arms and they shocked me just in time. So thank god for having me here today. But the cause of meningitis was of my mom doing drugs while she was pregnant with me and i got sick from it.

Nowadays there is injections to cure meningitis. I do have to live with consequences thou. Which it stinks having to deal with it. I have some behavorial problems and have a hard time learning and i am also behind in school. But i am catching up. And i get into trouble really easy and i get grounded for it but i can’t grounded like i should at my age.

My foster parents have to be careful on how they punish me because some things are to hold on me which i get even worst. But thank god i have overcome through alot since i was little. I have a really hard story but it will be something that no one forgets. And i am also writing a story about my life and all the accomplishments that i have come through. well that is my story. Hope you enjoy it.
